Thanksgiving Bread Pudding - DFen911 - 11-28-2010

Ok so this is my own adaptation of a savory bread pudding. I made 4 individual bread puddings. The flavor was just wonderful! I took 2 of them over to my neighbors. She is one of my best critics. The craisins added a really nice sweetness to the dish. I used Rice Milk because I don't do well with milk products. It's why this take about an extra 20-30 minutes to bake properly. Also the celery leaves was so much better than the parsley I had initially planned to used. Really kept up with the flavor profile I was going for.

Turkey Sausage Bread Pudding

4 Eggs
2 Cups rice milk
1 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp ground sage
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
5-6 cups stale bread or left over rolls from thanksgiving torn into chunks.
1/2 cup left over dressing
1 lb hot turkey sausage
1/2 cup craisins
1/4 cup chopped celery leaves
1/4 cup small diced celery

Combine first 6 ingredients and mix well. Add the rolls and left over dressing and mix well. Put back into fridge. Let the rolls absorb the milk/egg mixture for at least 30 minutes. Remove casing (if any) from turkey
sausage and cook. Cut each sausage in half lengthwise
and cut into 1/4 slices. Add to milk/roll mixture along with the craisin and celery/leaves.

Butter 4 10oz ramkins. Fill each one and place on
cookie sheet. Place into a preheated 350 degree oven,
on a rack placed in the middle of the oven. Bake for 30
minutes then rotate pan and bake for another 20-30
minutes. Remove from oven. Tops should be puffed up and
nicely browned. Allow to cool for at least 15-20
minutes.

Serve warm.

That looks so good Denise! I'm copying and saving for the next time we have turkey leftovers. Ours have already been consumed or sent back to college with the boys.

That looks really good, Denise. We love stuffing, so that's definately something we would like. (although Ron would pick out the craisins )

Thanks for posting and great photo!

Great idea! I'm sure we'd like it.

Copied as well, haven't cooked my turkey yet so no stuffing either, but I have the craisins and will definatly give it a try. Thanks!
